“Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald

“[B]ut it is only what happens, when they die, to all mortals.
The sinews no longer hold the flesh and the bones together,
and once the spirit has let the white bones, all the rest
of the body is made subject to the fire's strong fury,
but the soul flitters out like a dream and flies away.”
― Homer, The Odyssey

“You are the music while the music lasts.”
― T.S. Eliot

“I don't want to repeat my innocence. I want the pleasure of losing it again.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald, This Side of Paradise
